Patch is on hold..

[King Flevance]

He is claiming piracy. You would know if your copy was a fraud. I would just ignore that post Toma. It should be re-released shortly I would think. As in tomorrow or sooner. I can't say this for sure because Firaxis is 'so great' about keeping us informed. But I would bet on it right now as the patch doesn't seem so much 'bug ridden' so much as has some very minor things wrong with it at the moment.

If I could I would just email it to you.

So they accidently let a patch out prematurely. Big deal. Everyone's going all crazy over it. In a month no one will care.

Actually I'm rather surprised that things are this quiet...I like it.

If you read chieftess's post carefully, you will note that it's pulled till 11/29.

Which post? Her official announcement on top of the forum says nothing at all about a date.

The file is 25 megs. If anyone is willing to direct me to someplace that can share it then i can work on putting it up. I'm on cable and have a slow upstream though, about 20k-30k usually (~192kbps up). Could even possibly make it into a torrent.
Disclaimer: Many people ARE having issues with this patch.

why not actually wait till the real deal comes out?....

Which post is this? The 29th? Hehe someone will start passing out the 1.08 before then I am sure.

It will probably be on the 'sites we shall not mention here' very soon, if it is not already.

if you understand how much the programming is difficult, or if you can program without any bugs, you can criticize them.
I've played 1.08. It works fine. Yes, it has many bugs but they are trying to fix it. It's the most important things.

Oh yes it does. Read the post "real" carefully. It's not in the text of the message you usually think of. On the red border just before the title it say " Nov 22, 2005 until Nov 29, 2005". What I can tell you, is that it's not a typical post somebody would make, but an "announcement", which is likely to be a designation of how long that announcement will be posted, and then perhaps disappear, however, if that's what it means, then would that also be an indication that they are "off" that long and won't return to fix the patch till 11/29 at the earliest? Maybe just a coincidence or maybe a very deliberate message to the minimum it won't be fixed.

 

[MeteorPunch]

So we won't be getting the updated patch this week? Great.

 

[Chayton]

Well for those that obivously think its easy to get such a huge game bugfree and bugfree patches, i just say go on if its so easy then make the fan community patches like people do for Vampire Bloodlines, the game calls itself very mod friendly so i am sure it would be no problem to make patches by yourself, unless you considere it too much work.

Of course, it could just be that the author chose a basic time element like a week, knowing that in a week this will definitely be blown over but also knowing they have the power to pull it down if things change before then.
